Kygo started to learn to play the piano at age six through lessons. He decided to have a go at remixes and creating electronic music after discovering Avicii at age 15-16. After receiving over 80 million hits on YouTube and Soundcloud, Kygo was contacted by both Avicii and Chris Martin of Coldplay to create official remixes of one the artists' songs.
His remix of "I See Fire" entered Romania's Top 40 and remained there for 14 weeks, peaking at Number 2 as of June 3rd, 2014.
When creating/remixing music Kygo uses Logic Studio.
His track "It Ain't Me," with Selena Gomez, has exceeded 1 billion plays on Spotify.
He has an official site at https://www.kygomusic.com/ but at this moment it is about 5 years out of date. (In 2020 it refers to his "hotly anticipated album scheduled for 2015.")
Stay
Kygo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause I felt my heart numbing
It hit so deep I closed my eyes and I just took off running
I turned around and saw the look on your face
So I stay
Stay
But I don't need you
It'd take a miracle for you to really try and change me
Then I felt sorry for the look on your face
So I stay
Stay
So I stay
Stay
So I stay
Stay
You wanna leave her
Don't wanna hurt nobody
I don't believe a single word you say or that you're sorry
Why can't I say no to the look on your face
I just stay
Stay
So I stay
Stay
So I stay
Stay
Push me away, you push me away
But I always stay, I always stay, yeah
Push me away, you push me away
But I always stay, I always stay, yeah
Push me away, you push me away
But I always stay, I always stay, yeah
Push me away, you push me away
But I always stay, I always stay
But will you
Will you?
Will you?
So I stay
Stay
So I stay
Stay
I stay, I stay
Oh why do I stay?
So I stay
Stay
The lyrics to Kygo's song 'Stay' tell a story of a relationship that is stuck in a cycle of push and pull. The singer feels their heart growing numb and tries to leave their partner, but is ultimately unable to resist the look on their face and decides to stay. They acknowledge that they don't need their partner and that it would take a miracle for them to change, but they still find themselves staying in the relationship. The second half of the song switches perspectives and the singer questions whether their partner will ever truly be able to leave their current relationship and be with them.
The theme of the song seems to be about the power of a partner's emotions and the influence it can have on the other person's decisions. Even when the singer acknowledges that they don't need their partner and knows that they won't change, they still find themselves staying because of the emotional pull. The repetitive 'So I stay' in the chorus reinforces the sense of being stuck and unable to break free from the cycle of push and pull.
Overall, the lyrics to 'Stay' present a poignant and relatable story of the complexities of relationships and the power that emotions have over our decisions.

Thought I could leave you
I believed I could break free from you
'Cause I felt my heart numbing
Because I felt my feelings for you fading
It hit so deep I closed my eyes and I just took off running
It affected me so much that I left without looking back
I turned around and saw the look on your face
I looked back and saw the expression on your face
So I stay
Therefore, I decide to remain
But I don't need you
However, I don't depend on you
And you should know that baby
You ought to have known that, my dear
It'd take a miracle for you to really try and change me
It will be a wonder if you make a genuine effort to modify me
Then I felt sorry for the look on your face
Then I felt empathy for the expression on your face
So I stay
Therefore, I decide to remain
You wanna leave her
You want to end your existing relationship
Don't wanna hurt nobody
You don't intend to harm anyone
I don't believe a single word you say or that you're sorry
I don't trust anything you say or your apologies
Why can't I say no to the look on your face
Why can't I refuse you due to the expression on your face
I just stay
I simply remain
Push me away, you push me away
You try to distance me from you multiple times
But I always stay, I always stay, yeah
Yet, every time, I end up staying with you, every single time
But will you
But will you, though?
Will you?
Will you, truly?
Will you?
Will you, for real?
So I stay
Therefore, I decide to remain
I stay, I stay
I remain, I remain
Oh why do I stay?
Oh, why do I keep staying?
So I stay
Therefore, I decide to remain
Stay
Remain

Hi
I miss you
@nicolasriou8718
This song will be forever in my mind linked to the day I met my girlfriend physically for the first time after 2 months of talking. She’s Bosnian, I’m French, I travelled from Brittany to Tuzla. It was a cold winter night, I was waiting for my plane in this beautiful airport of Mulhouse, with this song in the ears, and butterflies in the stomach....two hours after, I was with her, and it will stay as the most beautiful day of my life.
It was in November 2016, we’re almost in 2019, and I love her more than ever.
